The Variant Appears
-3 Years after First Infection-
Smokers POV
"Ugh... Hunter, why are we going through all these houses?" said a tall man wearing a brown shirt with a pair of jeans. "I need to find something..." said another man wearing a dark red hoodie and some black jogging pants.
"How did i end up getting stuck here with Hunter?" Smoker thought to himself as he followed behind the one known as Hunter. "I should have just told him no... well not like i had much choice Anyways, sheesh" Smoker was lagging behind when Hunter stopped looking around and got in a crouched position which usually meant nothing good was coming.
Hunters POV
Hunter had been strolling through house after house dragging Smoker behind with him as he searched for some tape. He refrained from telling Smoker of his actual intentions for the sake of avoiding a lengthily chat as to why the one covered in tape from nearly head to toe needed more of it. Hunter was just about to make his way into one of the bedrooms of the latest house in the adventure to find more tape..
Hunter had begun to walk into the room when he caught a glimpse of something in the corner of the room, It was a figure sitting down towards the wall just kind of wavering around not doing anything. Usually Hunter would have just walked in not caring about a simple common infected but this time was different, he got down in a crouching position to avoid possibly catching the figures attention and he started to slowly sneak backwards towards Smoker.
Smokers POV
Smoker realized something was off when Hunter started to quietly sneak back towards him, he begun to speak aloud to ask what was going on when Hunter gave him a sign to stay quiet.
Smoker listened and stayed quiet until the two of them could move back out of the house and into the driveway on the opposite side from the room that Hunter had started his weird behavior around. "Alright can i speak now?" Smoker seemed a bit disgruntled having had to be pretty much been told to shut up by Hunter.
"Yes we can talk now, but try not to be too loud..." said Hunter
"What is going on?" "Why did you suddenly start acting all sneaky and quiet?"
"You are NOT gonna believe what i just saw..." said Hunter
"oh? and what exactly might that be?" Smoker had a bit of a ticked off tone to his voice but still allowed Hunter to speak.
"I saw one of those rare ones you used to talk about back when the girls first started appearing" Hunter looked up at smoker awaiting his reply.
"wait... a moment, Hunter are you telling me you saw a variant in there?"
"Yea yea that was the word you guys called them!" Hunter quickly hushed himself as he noticed he was a bit too loud.
"Yea right... i bet you just saw something else and happened to mistaken it for a variant but... its probably best we go check for certain" Smoker started to walk back towards the door to the house which they had came from when he remembered "oh yea by the way Hunter, you said it was a Variant but of what?"
Hunter knew it would sound stupid but he was asked about it so he had no choice "Err... well you see..." Hunter sheepishly tried avoiding giving a straight answer
"Well?" Smoker said while glaring at Hunter
"It looked like a Variant of well... of the Witch" Hunter waited for Smoker to start telling him off or laugh at him but that never came, instead Smoker looked to Hunter with a look of both fear and interest in his eyes.
"Hunter, are you certain it was a variant? it couldn't just be a common infected or such?" Smoker was thrown off at the idea of a male variant of the Witches, the witches were the only special infected left at this point that had no variants.
"Hunter i am sure you know this but stay completely silent as we go back to check and whatever you do if it is... if it is a Male Witch then i want you to no matter what make sure not to startle it.
All POV
Hunter and Smoker started back in through the half torn down door just barely hanging on its hinges up next to the driveway and into the house.
